We've come here a few times over the years, and the service is always good. They have a great beer selection with over 30 taps. It's also nice that you can bring food and enjoy the space. It's spacious and large, and we like the patio. It's nice to be able to take the kids during the day and then a mellow space for later to relax! read more

I really enjoy this location. Lots of beers I don't usually find at other locations in San Diego county. They have a friendly staff that is knowledgeable and helps you find what you like. There are plenty of food options you can bring in with you since they don't have a kitchen. Great place to hangout with friends too. For a great beer experience, this is the place. read more

I'm the first to admit....change is hard! When Mother Earth closed, I mourned. Truly. I always loved their Vista location (so many fond memories with friends and my better half). My go to was Cali Creamin', especially when it was on nitro. Swoon. Well, Barrel & Stave is there now. Same setup, local restaurants still deliver there. Friendly beertenders. So, why 4 stars? I think it's really great they carry a lot of NorCal beers. I know my better half enjoyed chatting about all the breweries he's visited...but when I'm along hop highway, I want to support local breweries. They had a few big local names on tap, but wouldn't it be great if they carried some of the smaller breweries? It would! 4 stars for now :) read more

Main Street Pourhouse - Only halfway there... - Beer Bar Near Me - Vista, California

Natasha was amazing, great beer server ! Made the whole experience amazing and i'm sure to be back again soon !

I've been meaning to check this place out since it replaced Mother Earth. I brought friends with me to join in the experience. There was a large selection of beers to choose from. I sampled a stout, but it wasn't as good as others I've had. You can have a large group of friends join you and the prices for drinks were reasonable. I don't think you'll be here for more than a drink, but please stop in to support! read more

My husband and I walk past this place all the time and decided to try it out last night. They had a live band which was great, live music is always a bonus (especially on a Saturday!) Cam was our bartending and she was AMAZING. She really gave us a great first experience, super attentive and helped us choose some good beers. They have an awesome beer selection here. You can order some food over at Urbn which is what we did. A great lively place right in downtown Vista. I'm surprised we haven't been here before but we will definitely be back! read more

Great atmosphere, extremely friendly employees. We contacted the owners and had a private event there and could not have been happier with the entire experience. read more

I always have a good time here. I like being able to sit outside at the patio and enjoy a cold beer from Pour House and tacos from Los Reyes. Both Natasha's are freaking awesome. Both are welcoming and attentive. I like the fact that animals are welcome here ( I own a kitten and a puppy ). Luke the dog is so well trained and the friendliest. The little Pug puppy is also a sweetheart. This is the place to hangout and enjoy the live bands playing music. They also have virtual golf. Good place. Go check it out. read more

40 taps. Terrific selection. Hard to find beers. Many from Northern California not avail in SoCal. To go cans offered. Multiple tv's with a 10ft big screen. Service and Staff are terrific. read more

Just had a great experience! The vibe is great but the best part are the people who work here!

Very cool spot in town for live music and wines and beers. If you are a spot fan, there are plenty of big screens TV to watch all different games at the same time. read more

We were around the area last week since we were on a waiting list for Belching Beaver and we were finding some places to stop by and found this place. Let's just say I'm super glad that I found this place! This used to be where Mother Earth was but I actually love the vibe and drinks better now. I was honestly surprised and grateful that they were able to open during these pandemic times. Everything was sanitized well and everyone was social distancing and respecting each other by wearing masks if they were not drinking at all. Everyone working there was super friendly too! I was surprised they got many beer tap collections from Orange County AND up in the Northern California area that this place definitely got me wanting to visit again! read more

We had family in town to celebrate a 91st birthday. We went to Mainstreet Pourhouse and Natasha was amazing. She set us up in a side room so it wouldn't be so loud and we could talk with each other. Natasha also added some plants to the table to spruce it up. She also checked on us frequently to make sure we didn't need anything. Huge thanks for making that day special for everyon. read more

Beautiful place, new bartender encourages art night on Tuesday, free to join, SO fun!Natasha R. Pays super attention to detail, polishes every glass with love, great place for socializing and the other manager Natasha is a gem as well! Come show support! read more

Location: Right in the heart of downtown Vista, this is a much welcome addition to this little town. There is an outdoor patio in front so you can people watch as you enjoy a drink. Additionally, URBN is right across the street and I still see them hand delivering pizza to happy beer patrons. The interior is dark and fairly minimal, but in a cool brewery way (as opposed to a Scandinavian vibe). There is also what looks like a game room on the side, it didn't seem to be open when I was there so maybe it is for private parties? Overall, this is a large location so it is great for a single or a large party. It's nice to have a spot you can bring the whole crew. On Tap Menu: The on top menu has about 40 taps at any given time. Some local breweries for now. I would love to see more of the smaller local breweries being added to the fold and take advantage of being on the Hop Highway. There is a really good variety (and some wine for our grape loving friends). The Cooler: There is a fridge full of various cans of delicious beer and some hard seltzers which can be taken to go or enjoyed on site. This is a huge benefit in my humble opinion. Prices & Staff: Prices are about what you'd expect for the area. Staff was friendly and quick to provide service. Overall: I am really happy to see another beer lovers spot open up in this area. They have maintained the relaxed and tidy vibe that the area has cultivated over the years. Overall, I think it is a great local spot and would definitely go again. Looking forward to see how this spot grows. read more

Big menu for beer and 3 wines-1 Chardonnay and 2 Pinot Noirs. Lots of seating and plenty of TV's. There a few food establishments nearby you can order from and bring back to enjoy with your beer(BBQ, Mexican, Pizza). There is no A/C but manageable temperature in this 90 degree day with ceiling fans. read more

Horrible service, I don't know if it was the way I looked or what possibly caused the bartenders to completely ignore me when I sat at the bar. Eye contact was made and it was fairly obvious I was there to quench my thirst but I was just ignored. Some time later a gentleman with a dog came in and he was promptly greeted and attended when he stood near me but still no greeting or drink for me. Now I understand the world is short staffed.... But I assure you this was not the case. This was just a case of poor service. I guess maybe next time I should bring a dog? read more

I have been coming here since it was the old Mother Earth brewing place. The beers here are phenomenal with a huge list. Lots of IPAs and then some yummy seltzers for the ladies. They have live music on different nights. One of my fav bands to see here is called Grooveline, if you have seen them before give them a Google. Across the street they have Urbn Pizza which you can have delivered to the Brew house. There is also a new Handsans ice cream place across the way. The venue is huge and fits a lot of people yet is never overly crowded. Love this place!! Thx read more

We've been coming here for years as a family. Went today and they no longer allow kids under 21 years of age. Very disappointed as it was one of our favorite places to grab a beer and eat URBN pizza from across the street. read more

I remember coming to this place back in the Mother Earth days and was sad to see they are no longer here. That being said, I'm happy to say that Barrel & Stave has taken their place, and greatly improved the place! They have digital menu boards (thank you) with clearly written names of all of the craft brews they have on draft. I imagine this list probably changes periodically but honestly it shouldn't matter much as they have a wide variety of strong to weak, hoppy to sweet, pricey to cheap choices...whatever floats your boat! They have two restrooms (unisex) with locks and hand dryers. They also have beer & wine to go in a large, really cool & modern refrigerator right near the entrance. While we were there, a large group was celebrating (something) in a private room adjacent to the tap room, so it's nice to see they do support hosting events if you're looking for this. Overall nice joint, really clean and although they don't really offer food (outside of chips or cookies), URBN Pizza is literally across the street and they will even deliver the pizza right to you. Big bonus points there read more

If you don't ant a great place to go in the Vista and San Marcos area then go here. The owners are terrific and you won't be disappointed.

Unfortunately this place is no longer a family place they no longer allow anyone under the age of 21 here anymore. We came to have a little date night and some dinner with our kids and we were told he can't be there. We have been going with our families for years. I'm so sad about this change. read more

I don't go out nearly as much as I used to, but when I do this is the spot. The servers are always super friendly, the manager walks around and talks to everyone. The selection is always outstanding. They also have wine if you aren't a big craft beer person. I highly recommend you stop by. read more

This taproom and fun joint is really wonderful. They have a wide range of beers, wine and cider that will make everyone happy. And, now they also have a private room for events. We recently had a party there and recommend the place highly. The staff is easy to work with, location central and enjoyable, and the drinks amazing! read more
